About Me

Chris and I have been married for 24 years.We have a 24 year old son whom we love very much. Chris and I have a great love in our hearts for Jesus and attend Victory Church in OKC, OK and love the church. We decided to adopt from China and applied in July 2005. We were actualy approved and logged in with the Chinese government on April 17, 2006. This date is very important as it is the date that they follow and use to match you with a baby. When we started this journey we were expecting to have miss Madison hereby now,but we have been waiting for what seems like forever. We are very happy to report that the Chinese Govt. is currently working on LID of March 2006, so that means that sometime this summer we will have our baby match and we will be traveling to bring Madison Rylee Crabtree home. We have waited for ever and prayed daily for her safety. We know that God has a special plan for our family and that is why she is not here yet. That special baby girl is waiting for us and God will place her with us when he feels it is time. So we just keep the faith and pray expectantly. HEBREWS 11:1 NOW FAITH IS BEING SURE OF WHAT WE HOPE FOR AND CERTAIN OF WHAT WE DO NOT SEE.

My Husband - Your DadToday is December 12, 2006. Madison I just wanted to write a quick note to you before I go to bed about your dad, who by the way happens to be my husband. Your dad is the best man you will ever meet. I am sure that when you grow up you will hunt for a husband just like him. You see, I know this becuase I am married to him and he is probably the kindess, most thoughtfull, loving, and respectfull man I have ever met. I cannot imagine not being marred to him. As you can tell I love your dad very much as will you. As you grow up Madison you will see all of these qualities that I am describing and when you are older and read this you will agree with me. I know that you are going to love him as much as I do.Make no mistake, your dad is not perfect, no one is, but your dad places God at the top of his list in everything he does and he has an extaordinary faith in Jesus and these are just a few of the great things I want you to know about him.I love you,Momxoxoxoxo
